Start your 4th of July with a little #nom

Today was my housewife-y day. Look at all the food I’ve made. Since I had a day off I decided to start my celebration early on. Breakfast was a very berry patriotic toast. Lunch was portabello burger (oh so yummy) and for a little snack it’s brie cheese with bruchetta toast, black currant jam and blackberries. Now, since breakfast and snack really don’t require a recipe I will share the Portabello mushroom recipe because you should try this beast at least once in your lifetime.

First thing you will want to do is marinate the portabello mushrooms . For the marinate use 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar (I’ve used pomegranate vinegar), 2 tablespoons olive oil and about 2-3 cloves of garlic minced. Place mushrooms in ziplock bag with marinate and leave at room temperature for couple of hours. Afterwards place mushrooms in oil heated pan and cook on high for about 3-4 minutes per side. Instead of buns I went with whole wheat bread and put gray poupon mustard on one slice and light mayo on the other. Then I placed some some salad with onions and avengers I mean burger assemble. For the side salad thingie which goes so great with burger I used small cherry tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese and stuck them on toothpicks. On top of the little skewers the garnish was fresh basil, cilantro and garlic all drizzled with a little bit of extra virgin olive oil and pomegranate vinegar. There you go enjoy your meal.
